You can make it work (we do), but you need 2 separate instances of
cyrus on each machine, which basically means 2 start/stop scripts, 2
different ports/ips for each service, 2 imapd.confs, 2 cyrus.confs,
and lots of -C command line params to everything so it uses the right
conf file.
Can you detail this A <-> B replication setup more? I've been trying to
figure out how to make use of the new 2.3.7 replication features outside
of a murder. The thing I can't wrap my head around is the following
situation:
1) Server A dies
2) Users are sent to Server B via DNS redirects
3) Server A is restored
4) Mailboxes on Server B are now more 'current' than mailboxes on Server A
In other words, the failover is easy(ish) but the failback has me
scratching my head. I Think two way replication solves that.
